Even with permission?

I used this for Unifi Cloudy setup but other than that I am unsure of any other significant uses.

As far as I understand it everything should still work with permission. You just need to request permission first:

> the preflight requests will request permission from target websites to send HTTP requests with the header Access-Control-Request-Private-Network: true. If permission is granted, the response will carry the header Access-Control-Allow-Private-Network: true. "This ensures that the target server understands the CORS protocol and significantly reduces the risk of CSRF attacks," said Rigoudy and Kitamura.

It seems more like it's requiring cors

Right. I’ve been looking into this and they’re adding CORS like headers to enable you to continue to do it when necessary.

I thought I also saw something about a white list you could create (I’m assuming in settings), but I’m not so sure about that part.

QZ Tray (which enables access to local printers from web pages) would also probably be affected, I'd guess.
